WHAT STATE DO YOU LIVE IN, THAT HAS ALOT TO DO WITH WHAT THE LAWS ARE. I AM A DEPUTY SHERIFF IN NORTH CAROLINA, WE HAVE GOOD LAWS AGAINST SHOOTING DOGS. BUT STILL I HAVE SEEN IT GO BOTH WAYS.

I agree it would also help to know what state you're in. Here in Pennsylvania we also have laws concerning shooting of dogs and removal of tracking collars.

Heres what I figured out today from an expierienced friend. This was in TN. Its illegal to kill a dog unless me or my dog is under an attack from the dog. They call it theft of property and its based on the value of the dog. My friend was looking for his dog the morning after a hunt on public land. Said his gps showed the dog coming toward the road about 150 yards from him and he herd a shot and the gps showed the dog was treed. He pretty much knew what happened and called the law right then. Come to find out a deer hunter shot his dog cause it was bothering his deer population. What a ####### ediot. This dog just happened to walk by the fool and he decided to shoot it.

Anyways, the ediot went to jail for grand theft(over 500.00$) and had to give my friend the money he had in his dog. I think it ended up costing the dummy bout 1800.00 for the dog, court and the rest of the stuff. Hope it all works out for you.
